My Very Gay Message to Rick Perry

I've been taking a little heat recently, from some of my gay friends, for not having written anything about Rick Perry's grotesque little video.

But as I explain to those fools, if I wrote a post every time some Christianist bigot in Amerika opened and closed his or her filthy pie hole, I'd never have the time to write about anything else. Or fetch the beer.

Besides what more could I say eh? When his video is already one of the most disliked videos in YouTube history.

There are more parodies than you can count...

Some better than...um...others.

And although I'm an atheist, I'm rather fond of REAL Christians, so I find myself agreeing with the Reverend Susan.

There is something wrong in this country -- but what's wrong has nothing to do with gay and lesbian troops defending it on the battlefield or gay and lesbian parents raising their children to believe that liberty and justice for all really means "all." Rather, it has everything to do with presidential candidates using homophobia as a weapon of mass distraction calculated to mobilize their political base.

And I really have nothing to add to that...... except this very gay message to Rick Perry:

hi Brahm...thanks...needless to say I rather liked the braying donkey. As Seb said, I would. ;)But that singing cowboy has always been one of my favourites. Whenever the homophobes in Amerika get out of control, out he comes...

hi Rev Effect...what have you got against LL Bean. I have cousins who live in Maine, so I used to go there all the time. ;)But seriously, Rick Perry is the kind of person who gives Christianity a bad name. When I first saw the video I was simply astounded not just at the naked bigotry, but at the outrageous connection to the "War on Christmas."As much as I love my cousins, and our neighbours, I can't help but feel that their country is going off the deep end...
